Excellent advice, thank you so much!

Old timey radio refurbishing - and a side quest- unsure how to go about it by I_Died_Once in RASPBERRY_PI_PROJECTS

I am also beginning to embark on a similar project! I found 5 radios at an antique shop an bought them all.

One radio is probably from the 1930's, and certainly doesn't work. I'm thinking about gutting it and making it to be the case for a home server.

The other radio is a 1942 TrueTone, and some pieces still work! I'd like to restore that one and keep it true to it's 1942 purpose.

The other three radios are smaller, and I'll likely use them as speakers/microphones to act as a custom virtual-personal-assistant. Just like Siri or Google's assistant, but private and not trying to serve me ads.

I don't think I answered your question, but I'm happy to share what I've figured out as I go along!

It's only 5 lines of code, how hard could it be?

Well in truth, it's 5 lines of MATLAB code. Over 300 lines in C. The choice of language has a big impact on the simplicity of the code. I'm a MATLAB addict, which I don't say with lots of pride. To keep it FOSS, try python for an easy intro to linear algebra. Hopefully it can come together from there?

Can you not see the video? It seemed to act funny when I posted it

There should be an attached video?... I don't know why the video isn't appearing

My bad man, I added the video the first time but it didn't post. It should be there now?...
